This week we revisit our 2024 conversation with fashion historians and vintage collectors Janine D'Agati and Hannah Schiff who joined us to discuss their book From Sleepwear to Sportswear: How Beach Pajamas Reshaped Women's Fashion. Their groundbreaking new research on beach pajamas uncovers a missing piece of the puzzle in women's adoption of pants in the early 20th century.
